Biology of endothelium

Lupus, 1998
Endothelial cells form a multifunctional cell lining that covers all of the inner surface of blood vessels and regulates several important physiological and pathological reactions. These include inflammation/immune reaction, blood vessel tonus, hemostasis/thrombosis, angiogenesis and so on.

The Endothelium and Thrombosis

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2000
Thrombosis reflects an imbalance between procoagulant and anticoagulant mechanisms. In some cases, thrombotic lesions are precipitated by gross changes in blood flow, vascular wall integrity, or systemic levels of coagulation factors. In other cases, thrombosis is induced by functional changes within the endothelium.

Endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization of canine coronary smooth muscle

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 1988
1. Experiments were designed to determine whether endothelium-dependent relaxing factor(s) released by acetylcholine from the canine femoral artery influences the membrane potential of coronary arterial smooth muscle. 2.

Statins and the endothelium

Vascular Pharmacology, 2007
Statins have been shown to have pleiotropic effects apart from serum lipid-lowering effect in human. One of the major target organs for the effects of statins is the vascular endothelium, which plays an important role in the development of atherosclerosis and angiogenesis.

Endothelium and Allotransplantation

Transplantation, 2006
Endothelial cells form the inner lining of blood vessels. The endothelium displays remarkable heterogeneity in structure and function. Phenotypic diversity reflects the ability of the endothelium to meet the demands of the underlying tissue. In addition to their critical role in homeostasis, endothelial cells are affected by, and contribute to, many ...

Endothelium and Arteriosclerosis

Clinics in Haematology, 1981
Endothelium, platelets and macrophages can each provide growth factors that may participate in atherosclerotic lesion initiation or progression, or both. These mitogens, coupled with alternations in endothelial integrity or function resulting from a variety of different risk-associated factors, such as hyperlipidaemia, hypertension, tobacco smoke ...

Endothelium and hemorheology

Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation, 2013
A number of factors are involved in the regulation and maintenance of vascular homeostasis. The role of the vascular endothelium has been identified almost three decades ago, and a number of lines of evidence provide solid support to the role of this tissue in modulating not only vascular tone, but also phenomena such as platelet, red blood cell ...

Aging and the endothelium

Experimental Gerontology, 2004
One link between aging and endothelial function is the inflammatory response. On one hand, the latter shortens the biological engaged by activated leukocytes against invaders or stressing agents. On the other hand, the surveyed tissues become targets of the toxicity of reactive oxygen species, ROS.

Differentiation of endothelium

The FASEB Journal, 1995
Vascular endothelial cells cover the entire inner surface of blood vessels in the body. They play an important role in tissue homeostasis, fibrinolysis and coagulation, blood‐tissue exchange, vasotomie regulation, the vascularization of normal and neoplastic tissues, and blood cell activation and migration during physiological and ...

Endothelium and haemostasis

Hämostaseologie, 2015
SummaryThe endothelium is a widely distributed organ system that plays an important role in health and disease. The endothelium is remarkably heterogeneous in structure and function. One vital function of the endothelium is to maintain blood in its fluid state, and to provide controlled haemostasis at sites of vascular injury. In keeping with the theme
